My mother always told me that if you don't have anything nice to say to say anything at all.

I shoot a 300 RUM...............

These velocities are not hot loads....

180gr bullets @ 3380fps

150gr bullets @ 3620fps

Can a 7mm do that??????

That 7RUM may not achieve that speed at the muzzle but, The BCs in that weight range are much better in the 7 so it'll catch up w/ your 300 after alittle distance.

The 180 VLDs on top of Retumbo do pretty well out of the 7.

Good Luck!

It's fast
It's accurate
Recoil??-not as bad as my 338 win. mag.
Downside
If you don't reload-the choices of bullets are VERY limited.
